I know many brides often struggle to find ‘the dress’. There’s lots out there to choose from but the style of gowns available from most bridal shops can be quite limited. If you are looking for something a bit different for your dress, it can be frustrating. Thankfully there are other options. With a mix of tailor made dresses created by independent designers & authentic vintage gowns from every era, Etsy is a fantastic place to shop. It’s also extremely affordable, with a dress for every budget.
Tips:
- Know your size. Listings will normally include measurements, so make sure you know yours before ordering.
- Order ahead of time. You’ll likely want to make a couple alterations to make sure it fits you perfectly.
- Think about what style dress you want. Try on a few in bridal shops or vintage stores to see what suits you.
To get you started, I wanted to share a selection of some of the beautiful vintage gowns available on Etsy right now
